It's Like Walking In On Your Parents For An Hour And A Half

Back in the late '70s, your mom used to get really high and fuck a ton of dudes, according to this trailer for American Swing (NSFW):

Whoops, you have AIDS now. That trailer gave you AIDS. SORRY.

The problem with putting out a six minute trailer about a sleezy sex hotel on Long Island is that it takes approximately 30 seconds to get the whole story, and the other five and a half minutes are just explicit proof that you don't need to see this. As if the prospect of getting older wasn't already daunting and horrifying enough without this guided tour of the sagging ravages of time. This movie needs to get a room.

Ew. That was worse than those senior hedonism resorts they showed on real sex 2453.

"You could thuck whoever you want."

I don't know what thucking is or was, but it sounds dirty.

HAHAHA. At 5:46 the old guy says, "It's a story of life."

"IT'S LIFE! JUMP INTO LIFE!"

According to VH1's Sex: The Revolution, the food at Plato's Retreat was good, but sometimes people would dip their balls in it.
